At Midnight lyrics

At midnight I awoke And looked up to the heavens No star on the teeming firmament Smiled upon me At midnight At midnight My thoughts stretched out Into the furthest reaches of darkness No image of light Brought me consolation At midnight At midnight I heeded The beat of my heart A single throb of pain Was roused At midnight At midnight I fought the battle Of humanity, of your suffering I could not resolve it With all my might At midnight At midnight I yielded all my might Into your hand Lord over death and life You stand guard At midnight
